  1. Most of my coworkers are leaving...

    Wow! I am very curious as to where you work because it sounds a lot like my first nursing job. I stayed for 4 years and watched much of the same behavior you have described-nurses (good ones, too)...
  2. Why I'm leaving nursing

    I totally understand how you feel. Last year I was burnt. Completely. I felt defeated as a nurse for various reasons and wanted out. It took me 6 months, but I got on with an insurance company. I know...
  3. NRSE 416 Case Study Nugyet help!

    Can anyone here clarify the chart for me? I emailed the TA and have not got a response. I have racked my brain over this thing! I am confused about the column that states "This month's budget" in the...
  4. Or do I? If so, how do I let them know I have completed the BSN program? Thanks (sorry if its a dumb
  5. Does OU contact the BON after completion of BSN?

    I guess I just assumed that they kept track of that. But then again why do they care as long as the NCLEX is passed.
  6. 455 Excellence

    Well, here I am...mod 5, and pretty much have all my assignments done for this last week...gotta tweak a few things but this class has not been bad at all! Congrats to all who are finishing up! Woot...
  7. I think Ohio health starts RN's at 21 and some change. But they have a shift diff. if you work nights. I started at a nursing home making 24 dollars an hour. LPNs start at 17 or 18, STNAs vary by...
  8. 455 Excellence

    Does anyone know if we HAVE to have citations for the DB replies to others?? The rubic does not state it.
  9. Will I ever get out of LTC or am I doomed?

    I TOTALLY understand. I am in my 3rd year as a nurse....and some days want to leave nursing all together. I do believe that LTC and rehab facilities need a serious overhaul. Hospital nurses cry about...
  10. 455 Excellence

    for the global paper I did use the objectives, for the website paper i followed the directions
  11. 455 Excellence

    For me, the rubic for both papers are the same. The website one states "in your own words" however, the paper still requires citations and references. So I guess I need to be careful with what I...
  12. 455 Excellence

    Im stressing about this class in the first week...the assignments are painfully VAGUE and so is the rubic.
  13. NRSE 416 Case Study Nugyet help!

    GOt 100% I was really sweating this
  14. NRSE 416 Case Study Nugyet help!

    Anxious for my grade!!
  15. NRSE 416 Case Study Nugyet help!

    my understanding is that the anticipated amount was 3 million for the year. The actual is 3.5 therefore they are up 500,000. This is my interpretation of this darn thing....it has OFFICIALLY given me...
  16. NRSE 416 Case Study Nugyet help!

    Actually I think that the lack of parentheses are an error on her part. I actually looked up favorable and unfavorable variances.....(im a dork!) and found that TECHNICALLY the 50,000 should be...
  17. NRSE 416 Case Study Nugyet help!

    "Budget" in terms of the text is the 'predicted performance'-it is how much the unit is anticipated to make. Not as in 'budget' spending money for the unit. Hope this
  18. NRSE 416 Case Study Nugyet help!

    Yes! The variance is a loss because the unit was anticipated to make that much and did not. My TA finally responded. The chart could be much
  19. Community Health...who has taken or wil be taking?

    I am in this class too and haven't found it too troubling. This being my last quarter before graduating I have to say that it seems like most papers are based on quantity and not quality. I have...
  20. I have a question about a pressure ulcer. When a stage 1 opens to a stage 2, do you measure the entire area-even the stage 1 area or just the open area that is now open?? Thank you!! (I hope I...
  21. May be a dumb question but curious!!

    Thanks guys! We are having some disputes about what is what. Our "wound nurse" only measures the open areas and not the nonblanchable areas so measurements are not correct. She is also reverse staging...
  22. Ohio University FNP Online?

    Aren't all np programs time consuming? I have read that most are I would expect it. When I spoke with Pam (admissions) she said that it was a 2 year full time program. I told her I would take me 3 at...
  23. Ohio University FNP Online?

    I am in the middle of completing my MSN application currently. I hope to get started in 2013 sometime. I will be graduating with my BSN from OU in June. I found the program to be rather easy. I like...
  24. March 26 start

    I start my final quarter March 26th! Funny that I did not know that this category was here! Good luck everyone! I thought the program was very straight forward and to the point. I will have completed...
  25. first time using a wound vac...please help

    My suggestion to you would be to go read the manual if available. If not, a KCI rep could be very helpful. However, if something goes wrong-not sealed-and you have to remove it my advice would be to...
